As long as the current email is secure, there should be no issues. Although Valve does keep all your known emails on their records, they will only address your current email.

You can contact Steam Support and ask them about your concerns, don't worry, they are nice and usually humans will respond to this type of question regarding accounts in support tickets but I am sure they are limited to what they can legally tell you about account protection as these matters are usually at the customers own risk because Steam has disclosures pertaining account safety, phishing, etc...

At most, I would attempt to request that the old phished email is removed from my account login history, if Valve even allows this procedure or if they can actually do it in the first place because they are usually extremely vague about slipping up account information/email login history even in support tickets but it never hurts to ask.

Thanks for the reply. That actually helps a lot. My current email is fully secured now and has 2FA, so I guess I shouldn’t worry too much. I didn’t know Valve only addresses the current email so that’s good to hear.

I’ll try contacting Steam Support too just to double check. Thanks again for clearing this up.

Secure the old email too. Change password, update security options, remove any unused devices from account settings, enable 2FA on all accounts that support it.

The thing is, I lost my old email last year... That's why im worried about losing my account

Try recovering it anyway. You won't lose your account just from losing that email. Steam Support would request more info than the hijacker probably has. But it's best to always try to recover whats yours anyway. Also if it's gmail and it hasn't been logged into it eventually gets deleted and cannot be recovered or remade.

I can only recommend using an authenticator for your email address. That way you’re doubly protected, and if your email gets lost or hacked, it’s often linked to a lot of problems. Another thing that’s always useful: if you click on your account in the top right, you can go to Account Details and then to Security and Devices. There you can see who is currently logged into your Steam account. That’s always good because you can check whether anything suspicious is happening or if someone is logged in who shouldn’t be.

My account has been hacked before as well. And Steam then asked me for old information, like an old email address or things like that. So always write down all the details you know or used in the past, so you can provide them to Steam in an emergency, because that’s how they determine whether the account really belongs to you. This also includes things like the receipts you received from Steam. For example, if you bought a game 10 years ago, they might ask you for the receipt number that was sent to your email back then — basically the invoice.

There’s also a trick I used to use in the past. I don’t know if it still works, but it used to be pretty good. If you activate Family View, you always have to enter a code when you want to access the market, for example. Because this code has to be entered every time you trade or access the market, potential hackers can’t sell your items or anything like that. At least that’s how it was a few years ago. So even if they had access, they would always need to enter that code to do anything related to the market, trading, or similar actions. And that code basically can’t be hacked.
